I. Purpose---------------- MAME is strictly a non-profit project. Its main purpose is to be a reference to the inner workings of the emulated arcade machines. This is done for educational purposes and to prevent many historical games from sinking into oblivion once the hardware they run on stops working. Of course to preserve the games, you must also be able to actually play them; you can consider that a nice side effect.

It is not our intention to infringe on any copyrights or patents on the original games. All of MAME's source code is either our own or freely available. To operate, the emulator requires images of the original ROMs from the arcade machines, which must be provided by the user. No portion of the original ROM codes are included in the executable.

II. Cost---------------- MAME is free. Its source code is free. Selling either is not allowed.

III. ROM Images----------------

ROM images are copyrighted material. Most of them cannot be distributed freely. Distribution of MAME on the same physical medium as illegal copies of ROM images is strictly forbidden.

You are not allowed to distribute MAME in any form if you sell, advertise, or publicize illegal CD-ROMs or other media containing ROM images. This restriction applies even if you don't make money, directly or indirectly, from those activities. You are allowed to make ROMs and MAME available for download on the same website, but only if you warn users about the ROMs's copyright status, and make it clear that users must not download ROMs unless they are legally entitled to do so.

These rom images are placed here as a service to the gaming community and are never to be sold.All copyrights and trademarks belong to the registered owners.

I downloaded a few roms tonight and I will be testing some of these roms. The website seems to be all about advertising. Web sites change and we cannot always rely or trust the downloads.``

Rom World appears to be not what it should. I would recommend not downloading any roms from that site. If you want working roms.. I have some uploaded on my site (above) and about 600 in my file archives.

My geocities sites are gone.

Here's an update...

I still use this version, the first one I ever tried -- runs fine on Win XP
